Take it easy
I read this and decided to share it.
One day I was running some errands and running behind....I had places to go and things to do and was being very impatient as I waited my turn in line. I turned to the little old lady behind me who must have been almost 90 and said, "Why don't they open another checkout, I am running late and need to get out of here." She said, "Honey, everyone has some place to be. Let me ask you two questions. If you don't get there on time are you going to die? Are you going to get pregnant?" I replied, "Well, no." Then she proceeded to tell me that every day she was able to put her feet on the floor and get out of bed, to hear the birds singing, and to see the sun shining - was a blessing.
She was a ray of sunshine in my life that day.
Ever since then I have learned to slow down and not be in such a hurry, to enjoy life a little more and to always remember that little old lady who lived every day to the fullest.
